The Schools Day for the Book Festival brought the Powerpod to Charlotte Square. The sun was out for a day of workshops and popcorn making, in between the groups visiting their favourite authors.
The morning was slow-going, due to the trailer being placed at the gate - in clear view when groups came in, but out of the main garden area where the groups were situated. After running round teachers, convincing them to bring their groups out to the gate we had a whirlwind of classes trying out the solar cells, racing the hydrogen cars and munching on solar popcorn.
The 'Polar Bear game', demonstrating one of the effects of climate change, was a big hit (and definitely provided an outlet for excess energy!)
Free icecreams, courtesy of the Book Festival, finished off the day well!
